This grown-up s’more is inspired by the iconic Hershey’s and graham cracker version, but instead of the standard fare, its ingredients are gourmet and handmade locally. The firmness of the two gingersnap cookies from the Cookie Lady ensures a successful journey from hand to mouth, while its flavors of cinnamon, cloves and, of course, ginger add a bit of fall-inspired spice. The handcrafted marshmallows from Chocollazo provide the perfect glue to hold the sweet creation together. And the star of the show is the Mexican chocolate bar from Ms. Chocolatier. The deep, dark chocolate is complemented by a light cinnamon flavor and sliced almonds that provide a slight crunch. Of course, it’s easier to stick with the standard version, but rest assured this combination of flavors is worth the extra effort. Learn more about Ms. Chocolatier here.
